| I want to thank everyone for your messages. The main reason I want to

Either HD580 or HD250-II will sound significantly better than anything Sony
makes. Sony headphones are notoriously weak in the bass and upper
mid-range (and the world gets "Mega-Bass" from Sony instead of better
headphones). Both HD580 and HD250-II have significantly better bass
response.
Do not assume that because the 580s have a higher model number they are
somehow superior. That isn't true. The two are comparable, with the
difference being that HD580 is open and HD250-II is sealed. If you need
good isolation from external noise then HD250-II is the better choice,
otherwise go with HD580.
Beyer Dynamic's model 831 are a little better than HD250-II overall, but
are a little bit lacking in the bass response, whereas HD250-II is a little
bit lacking in the midrange, which is like saying that 33 degrees is a
little bit colder than 34 degrees :).
